Product Information

A USA Today bestseller and book club favorite! College student Joe Talbert has the modest goal of completing a writing assignment for an English class. His task is to interview a stranger and write a brief biography of the person. With deadlines looming, Joe heads to a nearby nursing home to find a willing subject. There he meets Carl Iverson, and soon nothing in Joe's life is ever the same. Carl is a dying Vietnam veteran-and a convicted murderer.

#7 OCTOBER LIBRARYREADS PICK! "Allen Eskens delivers a mesmerizing debut, unfolding decades of secrets in a rewarding tale of redemption." --JULIE KRAMER, Minnesota Book Award winner and author of Delivering Death "[A] masterful debut.... [A] satisfying resolution." --PUBLISHERS WEEKLY, STARRED REVIEW "The tension builds to an all-stops-out finale that works on every level. Thriller fans should keep their eyes on Eskens; he's a comer." --BOOKLIST "Joe Talbert is an everyman hero--thoughtful, unassuming, and determined to rise above his circumstances. Smart, stylish writing sets the tone in this absorbing debut about Joe's efforts to unearth the truth behind a brutal murder while caring for his autistic brother. A rich and highly satisfying mystery!" --LYNNE RAIMONDO, author of Dante's Poison "This tale of inequality lured me in from the first page. Some children quietly carry tremendous burdens, and Allen Eskens is masterful in exposing the frustrations of a young adult trying to escape the clutches of an abusive, alcoholic parent--all while trying to take college classes, protect a younger brother, and investigate a murder three decades old. This debut novel is breathtaking, the plot real, heart-wrenching, and hopeful. Eskens writes my kind of book." --SUSAN FROETSCHEL, 2014 Mary Higgins Clark Award nominee and author of Fear of Beauty, "Allen Eskens delivers a mesmerizing debut, unfolding decades of secrets in a rewarding tale of redemption." --Julie Kramer, Minnesota Book Award winner and author of Delivering Death, 2015 EDGAR AWARD NOMINEE: BEST FIRST NOVEL!

[A] satisfying resolution." -- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY , STARRED REVIEW "Set against the backdrop of a brutal Minnesota winter,  The Life We Bury  is much more than a satisfying, suspenseful novel. This story kept me turning the pages, and it touched my heart.

Thriller fans should keep their eyes on Eskens; he's a comer." -- BOOKLIST   "Eskens' debut is a solid and thoughtful tale of a young man used to taking on burdens beyond his years--none more dangerous than championing a bitter old man convicted of a horrific crime." -- KIRKUS REVIEWS "An intelligent and compelling story with characters that will capture you from the start.... This debut novel never lets the reader off the edge of the seat--the mark of a great story." -- THE BIG THRILL "Eskens' compulsively suspenseful first novel reveals that guilt takes many forms--and that getting the story right is essential." -- BOOKPAGE   "Eskens delivers interesting puzzles, clever problem-solving, and plenty of stay-up-all-night-reading suspense." -- REVIEWING THE EVIDENCE, "Allen Eskens delivers a mesmerizing debut, unfolding decades of secrets in a rewarding tale of redemption." --Julie Kramer, author of Delivering Death, #7 OCTOBER LIBRARYREADS PICK!
